Folklore Artisanal Taco — Restaurant in Cranford

Sabor! How did we not know about this place before today? It was amazing. We had tajin tacos. I mean it's tacos so the bar isn't high, right? WRONG! They took it to the next level. Seasoned to the gawds! I don't know who does the cooking here but they need a raise. The short ribs tacos would make me fight you if you took a piece off my plate. The shrimps were not overcooked. Just like Goldilocks and the Three Bears the shrimps weren't too hard or too soft. Them joints were just right. OK so Goldilocks didn't eat shrimp but you get the "just right" connection. I came stomach-touching-the-ribs-hostage starving and I was full halfway through my 4 taco plate. I'm greedy so the portions were the way I like them. I mean meat was falling out the tacos!!! The sorrel wasn't as sweet as I'm used to but I'm not complaining. Some of my favorite sorrel-making family members have diabetes so don't trust me when I say it isn't sweet. They had mad Uber orders coming through while we dined in, so clearly the secret is out. The cashier was polite, friendly, and about her business. She was working the front of house like a boss. I've been eating bad tacos my entire life. I've been saved. We got a...

My first time coming here and I was severely disappointed. I can say with confidence go somewhere else. Not because of their service but the quality of food is lacking especially for the price. I bought a horchata and 4 cheese chicken tacos and it made me depressed. It costs $26 for both of them. $5 and some change for the horchata, $17 for the four mini taco then plus 4% for card. It looked pretty but the taste was not there.

First the chicken looked and tasted like it was boiled, I wish I was joking. Definitely never tossed on a pan or marinated in their sauce that they claim they do.

The tortillas felt old, potentially frozen or reheated from the day before, and close to no cheese on it. The only thing that made it bearable was the fact it came with the sauces and lime.

Horchata was mediocre at best, and loaded with ice.

Whole meal was extremely bland with no flavor. From what I can gather they were once good and I have experienced their food at the worst time.

Will not be going back. Should have seen the red flags when no one was there at lunch...

This is tough because I usually like this place. The gentleman who normally works the front and register does a great job. Tonight I came in and a girl with glasses is working instead. She is the absolute worst. It takes a lot for me to complain but boy what an attitude towards me she has for no reason whatsoever. When I asked questions she straight up ignored me or put a finger up (as to say hold on), and then nothing, no response. Take out looked busy and the food was taking longer than usual so I asked how long (nicely), she then yawned in my face and didn’t respond. The only fun I had was talking to a couple there about how horrible her service and attitude was:

If someone else is working, I’ll gladly come back as I enjoy the food. If The very short girl with glasses is working I’m walking straight back to my car and...
